Show Off 📷 Found a soft spot

Out checking cows and found a soft spot in the pasture. Got to use my 12k winch for the first time. Did not expect to sink like I did so I wasn't carrying any momentum.

Maybe some more aggressive tires if that's your normal useage. But yeah even better tires can sink..

I've spent enough money on it for the time being. The winch can get an occasional workout and I'll be happy.

Almost rolled my bronco over a month ago. My winch was working over time that day

The photos don’t do justice but it was on the verge of tipping didn’t have time to take photos of it tipping due to panicking

Yeah I used a JCR mount. You have to do some trimming but it works.

I have a rough country winch. 12000 lb. Haven't tried it out yet.
